New Suggestive Burger King Ad for the Super Seven Incher

Look forward to seeing the poster at the right (click to enlarge) in a promotional campaign for the Super Seven Incher, a burger topped with American cheese, onions, and A-1 steak sauce currently available only in Singapore. If it blows you mind away, it'll probably be with its mediocrity. Advertising blog Copyranter reports on its suggestive language, calling it the "most overtly blow-jobby ad" they've ever seen. The suggestive and gross nature of the poster don't make me want to try the sandwich any time in the near future. Super Seven Incher: please stay in Singapore as I'm going to stick with my standby: the good old Whopper Jr.

wowza. yikes. don't know what to say, except please stay in Singapore. What's Singapore like? Can they do that??

Considering that Singapore is the place where you can be arrested for chewing gum, I'm aroused.

Singapore is neat. However, I beg to differ on the interpretation. The SUBWAY $5 footlong is by far the most suggestive ad I have ever seen. What do you all think?

Yeah, the ad is gross, but I have to say I love the idea of the sandwich. I don't really like A1 or bbq sauce on burgers so I'd ask them to hold that, but without the A1 it reminds me of the cheeseburger subs that contributed to my slight overweightness issues during my college years in Baltimore. I would definitely have to try one, though I would probably need a couple of drinks in me before I asked for it by name...

Sex sells, for sure. Very overt, very callous.

I want to meet the advertising person who came up with the idea as much as I want to meet the executive who approved it...

No sense of humour, you guys. No wonder all the good ads are from Europe and Japan.

And this sounds very much like my home-made version of a Philly cheese steak,
except it's a burger patty instead of Steak-Umms, and I use HP Chicken & Rib sauce which is slightly sweeter than A-1. (BTW, in the UK, that "Chicken & Rib" sauce is called "HP Fruity Sauce"; wrap your heads around that..) I'd try it once; further adventures would depend on how it tasted.
